Tapara

Common name in Venezuela for the fruit of the calabash or gourd tree. The dried shell is traditionally used as a bowl, vessel, or container.

It is a phrase used to indicate that two people share the same tastes, habits, or vices. People usually say: the measure of cheese and the Tapara of molasses finally got together (cane syrup with cheese is a popular traditional dessert from El Tocuyo, Venezuela).
